Flat for sale in Peckham Road, Camberwell SE5

Large and light two double bedroom conversion apartment of 1216 square feet, with a Freehold-share, two bathrooms and off-street parking. Chain free.

Find your next and rare to market pad within an impressive former commercial factory building in Camberwell/Peckham borderland. Walk 15 minutes to Denmark Hill or Peckham Rye stations (both Zone 2 and on the Overground network).

Located beside the charming Southwark Register Office (a very popular spot for London weddings), and to the front of the delightful cobblestoned artists’ quarter: Vanguard Court, The Piano Factory was built at the turn of the last century. The highly attractive building was converted into luxury apartments in the late nineteen nineties.

The property rests in first floor position with leafy views, and hosts a vast open-plan main room which incorporates kitchen, living and dining spaces. It is over 26 feet by over 22 feet, with massive double-glazed windows. Original boarded floors (find these rolling through your bedrooms, too) and dreamy high ceilings (as enjoyed throughout) further impress. A large alcove is dedicated to cool to-the-ceiling storage cupboards. The fitted kitchen is a modern affair with a large island/bar. Cook up a storm and entertain extremely easily here!

The master bedroom is next door, complete with an en suite shower room. Bedroom number two is next along the wide hall (again a double, and this time with a built-in wardrobe and a cute mezzanine area). The main bathroom is accessed from the hall space. This has a white suite including bath. Both bathrooms have large profile tiling, concealed plumbing and contemporary sanitary ware and fittings.

What a fabulous spot to lay your hat. Peckham Rye and Denmark Hill stations (both Zone 2) are both local with regular and Overground services. London Bridge, London Victoria, Clapham Junction, Kings Cross St Pancras and Canary Wharf (via Canada Water), among other destinations, are all quickly reached. Bus travel is easy from pretty much the doorstep, and you can easily swap a bus for a tube at Oval or Elephant & Castle.

Local parks include Brunswick Park and Lucas Gardens, followed by Ruskin, Brockwell and Peckham Rye parks.

Central Peckham is a cultural and gastronomic mecca! Check out Bellenden Road, Choumert Road and Blenheim Grove for some top restaurants, bars and cafes (Artusi, Levan, The Begging Bowl and Ganapati to name a few), while Rye Lane gives you Peckham Levels and Bold Tendencies, and Frank's Bar and The Bussey Building's rooftop bars in the warmer months, plus Peckham Plex Cinema (films for just a fiver!).

South London Gallery is really close as well (opposite toad bakery), and Camberwell leisure centre has good classes and gym and swim facilities in a pretty Victorian setting. You are also close to Peckham’s modern leisure centre, library and Mountview (performing arts centre).

Grove Lane Deli and Gladwell’s in Camberwell are great spots for posh groceries (the latter has a new Turner & George meat counter). Local recommended places to eat and drink in SE5 include Theo's, The Camberwell Arms, The Bear, Silk Road, Veraison Wines, Little Cellars, Forza Win and The Hermits Cave.

For kids, The Villa Nursery and Pre-Preparatory School is close at hand (2-7). As are Lyndhurst, Dog Kennel Hill and The Belham primary schools. The Dulwich independent schools are also but a short drive.
